General Instructions and Safeguards This equipment is designed and sold for commercial use only. Only licensed professionals should work on or service this equipment. INSTALL IN NON-COMBUSTIBLE LOCATIONS ONLY! Clearance from non-combustible construction must be 6” from back and sides. Do not store or use gasoline in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Keep the appliance area clear and free from combustibles. Whenever working on or servicing this unit, ALWAYS disconnect the power.
Installation Instructions Local Code Officials should be consulted prior to installation. Open hearth broilers create a good deal of heat and smoke and should be installed under an efficient exhaust hood. We recommend a standard class 1 hood with fire suppression due to the small amount of particulate being released. However, some local codes may require a solid fuel hood. The Charbroilers are pellet fired; however,the unit uses electricity to control the temperature and ignite the pellets.
Operating Instructions Figure 1-Charbroiler Controller Before starting check the following: 1. Pellet level (your new Charbroiler was shipped with 200 lbs. pellets), o Only 100% hardwood food-grade pellets should be used in your charbroiler. Pellets should be no larger than ¼” in diameter and ¾” long. Use of heating fuel pellets can be harmful to both the food you are cooking and your Charbroiler. 2. Ensure the fire pot is clean and clear of ash. 3. Make sure the pellet slide is clean. 4.
5. 6. 7. 8. Always preheat charbroiler prior to cooking. For searing set the burner to “Hi.” For cooking and finishing set to “Med.” During slow times adjust the unit to “Low.” The broiler requires 100% hardwood food-grade pellets for operation. Before starting the unit, add pellets to the hopper. The unit will cook on “Hi” for approximately 4 hours without adding more pellets. Once a week, the pellet hopper should be cleaned to remove all pellets and sawdust.
Shut Down Instructions Make sure the charbroiler is always shut down properly. If you have been running the unit on HI, drop down to LOW for at least 5 minutes before turning the unit off. Press the on/off button on each controller Do not unplug or turn Master On/Off Switch off for at least 15 minutes to allow unit fans to finish cooling down unit.
